With work, appointments, and errands, we live in an on-the-go society. Meals are often eaten in the office or the car with plastic utensils and containers that are used once and tossed in the name of convenience. Luckily, the Mono Lake Committee online store has gifts to help you and your busy loved ones break free from the use-and-toss lifestyle.
The snack stack tiffin and To-Go Ware bamboo utensil set are popular items that are perfect for those on your shopping list who frequently eat meals away from home. The tiffin set is a great alternative to paper bags when lunching on the go and features two tiers to separate 
snacks. Easy to bring with you wherever life takes you and easy to clean, the snack stack tiffin is a great addition to a busy life. And of course, no eco-friendly meal is complete without reusable utensils. The bamboo utensil set features a spoon, fork, knife, and chopsticks made of bamboo that fit neatly into a holder made from recycled plastic bottles.
For the environmentally conscious shopper on your list, check out the mesh produce bag set. These handy reusable bags are made from recycled plastic bottles and are great for keeping produce fresh. The mesh design lets ethylene gas, a ripening agent, escape from the bag so you’ll find your fruits and vegetables stay fresher far longer than when stored in plastic bags. When not in use, they pack up small, making it easy to take them shopping again and again.
